🔗 Share this article From Marc Guéhi to Kenan Yildiz – Which Players Could Be Transferring during the winter Transfer Window? The winter recruitment period is typically a time of feverish rumour and possible big-money deals. A number of prominent stars are being linked with transfers out of their current teams. This article explores some of the major figures that are poised to be changing clubs in January. Antoine Semenyo Despite the Black Stars' failure to reach the Africa Cup of Nations, which has left the forward in contention, it appears an important move is close. The 25-year-old has a deal featuring a substantial buy-out clause applicable for a short window at the start of the month. Latest reports suggest the Premier League champions have emerged as his services. Other interested parties such as Chelsea and Tottenham are said to have moved on to alternative options, leaving teams like Liverpool or Manchester United to attempt a late bid. Marc Guéhi The English centre-back has continued to excel for Crystal Palace despite a previous move to Anfield falling through. As his contract due to expire in the summer, this represents the London club's final chance to secure a fee for their captain. A host of elite clubs, such as City and several continental powerhouses like Barcelona, Real Madrid, and Bayern Munich, are believed to be interested. However, a January departure remains unlikely, especially given the coach's dependence on the defender. Brennan Johnson This Welsh forward has found starting minutes hard to come by at Spurs this term. Despite being the side's leading goalscorer the previous campaign, he has begun just a small number of Premier League games. Reports suggest the North London outfit would be willing to consider a sale for the correct valuation, thought to be in the around forty million pounds. Bournemouth appear to be at the front of the queue, with Aston Villa, Brentford, and Crystal Palace additionally credited with an inquiry. Tottenham value the Welsh international at approximately £40m. R. Neves The Portuguese playmaker could be poised for a comeback to the English top flight after a period in the Saudi Pro League. Still just 28, while his contract expiring in the summer of 2026, he is a possible opportunity. Teams such as Manchester United and Liverpool have been connected to the former Wolves man. Furthermore, there have been suggestions from Spanish media that he would be prepared to take a pay cut for a move to the Spanish giants. Marc-André ter Stegen This veteran German goalkeeper finds himself as third-choice at Barça under new coach Hansi Flick. Having fallen out of favour and undergone surgery, a January exit seems increasingly probable. Aston Villa were once mentioned as a possible destination, but that move currently seems off. Instead, interest from Turkey and Saudi Arabia are thought to be showing interest in the 33-year-old. I. Toney The prolific England striker has kept finding the net regularly in Saudi Arabia. A return to the Premier League could boost his fading hopes of making the national squad. However, arranging a transfer presents major challenges. Al-Ahli do not wish to part with him, and his reported huge weekly wages make any agreement complicated. Tottenham, Manchester United, and Everton are all mentioned as interested parties. Ivan Toney was instrumental as his Saudi club to victory in the domestic cup showpiece. Conor Gallagher This energetic midfielder attracted widespread attention in the summer but remained at Atlético Madrid. Having few starts in Spain this season, he may be eager to find more playing time ahead of the tournament. United have been heavily linked, and a return to Crystal Palace, a club he excelled on loan, remains a option, though financial demands could prove a problem. H. Elliott Despite starring and being named the best player award at the Under-21 European Championship last summer, this talented player has found it tough for game time during his loan spell at Aston Villa. The manager has confirmed the loan move won't be made permanent. Due to specific rules about representing two clubs in a campaign, a move back to his parent club before next summer seems to be the only available outcome. K. Yildiz This exciting Turkish attacker has been in excellent form for the Italian giants this term. As his current contract nearing its end, a host of Premier League clubs – such as Tottenham, Arsenal, Chelsea, and Liverpool – are keeping tabs on the situation. Juventus are desperate to secure the youngster to a new long-term contract but are in a battle to keep one of the continent's most promising prospects. K. Smit The much-admired Netherlands midfielder has drawn comparisons to Kevin De Bruyne for his style of play. After impressing at the U19 Euros, he has become a regular in the AZ first team. This 19-year-old is widely tipped to make a major move this month. Newcastle reportedly are frontrunners, but could face strong competition from the Spanish champions for a deal valued at approximately twenty-two million pounds.
